FRED. 7. DUBOIS.
The question has already been suf.
fciently agifated. The people of
Southern Idaho, while regretting to
part with North Idaho, are willing to
let her go to Washington or Montana,
since the future happiness and pros
perity of her people seem to require
it, And with North Idaho gone,
South Idaho will cheerfully accept
annexation to Nevada, because the
latter is a mining State whose inter
ests are identical with ours and also
because annexation would confer
upon US all the benefits and privileges
of American citizenship, which are
now denied us, and which we could
not otherwise secure for at least one
generation.
Mr.. Dubois's evident desire to serve
bis constituents to the best of his
ability is very creditable to him.

How Drunken Father Disposed
of His DAUGHTERS.

OTTAWA, Nov. 2.-While a Victoria
schooner was lying at the wharf at Bar
clay sound. on the west coast of Van4
cOuver island, recently, the captain and
crew were surprised to see two white
girls running towards the vessel, closely
pursued by three or four Indians.
Reaching the side of the vessel the girls
Sprang Oh board almost exhausted and
begged the captain to protect them from
their pursuerS. The Indians were close
upon them, and, jumping on the deck
of the schooner, demanded the girls as
their property, but the captain refused
to give the girls up. After parleying
with the captain for a short time they
took their departure only to return
largely reinforced. The captain then
sure ndered the girls for fear of his
life. 1t has since been learned by the
government of British Columbia, which
is to demand the release of the girls,
that they are daughters of William
Thompson, formerly of Victoria,
who, with his wife and four daughters,
moved to San Juan, on the west coast,
three years ago and took up his home
near an Indian camp. Since that time
until now nothing has been heard Of
them. After moving to San Juan the
father became dissipated and all he
earned went for the purchase of liquor.
When he could no longer obtain money
or liquor he sold his eldest daughter toa
wealthy Chinaman, to whom it is said
she was married at the point of the re-
volver. His wife died of a broken heart,
and in one of his revelries at the Indian
camp, it is alleged, he agreed to barter
two of his daughters for few blankets,
clothing and whisky. The bargain was
made, and for the purpose of carrying
it out Thompson's hut was visited the
following night by few of the tribe,
who easily carried away their helpless
victims. Since their captivity the girls
have been subject to the most brutal

The Sham Butter Issue.

CHICAGO, Nov. 2.-Many of the lead-
ing cattle breeders of the state are up
in arms against the management of the
national fat stock show, which opens
here next week, on account of its re-
fusal to allow space f0rsa exhibit Of
oleOmargarine and butterine. They
claim that these articles are wholly the
product of fat cattle and fat swine; that
they are now manufactured under gov
ernment sanction and inspection, and
consequently are of guaranteed purity
and whOleSOmenesS; and that, as space
has been set aside for an exhibit of dairy
products, the discrimination in question
is not only unfair and unjust but detri-
mental to the very class of livestock that
the show has been organized to benefit.
These views will probably be empha-
sized at conference of the various
county breeders associations, to be held
here next week. One of the managers
of the fat stock show said this morning
that he did not know what effect the rel
mOnstrance would have upon his asso-
citation. For himself he was not in IA
vOr of changing rule which had been
adopted, and that it was to the interest
of the show to protect the legitimate
dairy interests of the country.

AT THE JAIL.
How the News Was Received by
the Doomed Men.

CHICAGO, Nov. "A feeling of in
tense nervousness, or mental excite
ment, all the more evident from the
determined effort to suppress it ON the.
part of those who were influenced by it,,
pervaded that portion of the county Jail
which is occupied by the condemned
anarchists this morning, and it was:
with an evident feeling of suspense
that the condemned paced the corridor
when they took their morning exercise.
This feeling was no doubt owing to the
expectancy of decision from the
United States supreme court in their
case and the suspense in which they
were until they received it. Despite
the disquiet of their minds they all did
their best to preserve their outward de-;
meanor. Lingg and Fischer looked as
defiant as ever, and Spies loses none of
his cynical expression as the fatal day
approaches. Parsons does his best TO
preserve his jOllity, but this morning
his attempts at gayety were sorry ones,
and it was evident from his every act
and general manner that he, too. telt

Gravity of the Situation,

OF the message which in few short
hours he expected to receive, fixing his
fate, so far as the courts of the land can
do it. Fielden's contemplativeness was
given full swing, and nobody who
watched him could doubt for moment
that the one subject he was pondering
in his mind was what the de-
cision of the highest court in the
land would be. The habitual deep set:
pallor of Schwab's countenance was
more marked than ever before, and
those who watched him mlnutely Won

toner would anticipate by any very
long period the ordinary laws of nature

The first news of the decision of the
supreme court was taken to the county
Jail by reporter few minutes after it
had been received from Washington.

tipped back in his chair, and about to
light his cigar. When the reporter told
him the news he deliberately struck a

did not have to hunt around the prison
for these cases. They are the average
cases in this prison, and although this is as
far as my knowledge extends, doubt if we
are different from other cOnvicts throughout
the land.
No, my dear. deluded friends, there is
not many desperadOes in states prison; in
fact, tirst-class crooks don't go to prison.
They go to Canada. Once in while a
great thief falls, but it is very seldom. 1
do not mean to say that the men behind
the bars are all dear little innOcents, and
that they only require pair OF wings to be
made cherubs of. but do mean to say that
the four hundred men in this prison will
compare favorably, both intellectually and
and morally, with the first tour hundred
men you meet in a large city. If you
doubt this read some of the articles con-
tanned in this paper-nOt this poor effort

considerable'part of the responsibility for
crime is to be laid upon the shoulders of those
who lionize criminals. The novelist. who paint
them as heroes and martyrs the long haired men
who snfe over hem behind the bars, the women
who carry them flowers, and the reporters who
drivel over the gallows. are all alike perverting
public opinion, and being accessories to crime,
may become guilty of manslaughter.
The above is from the Northwestern
Presbyterian of November 18th. The
motto of the Presbyterian is, For we are
Laborers Together with God.''
The field of fiction is wide, and it is no
doubt wrong to allow all classes of fiction.
printed by authority of law, to circulate un-
restricted. 1t is productive of wrong. AS
for the ''long haired men" we have not
seen them, and just what persons the writer
is thrusting at we can not say, for we were
not aware that long hair was a class
characteristic, but when he hurls his
poisoned arrows at the ladies, who by their
flowers and smiles and kindly words seek
to lift the veil of night from our Swallowed
lives. and impress us that there is nobler.
purer life than can be reached through the
channels of crime, he is treading upon
ground that is too sacred to be trespassed
upon, no matter what banner he waves.
AS for the reporters we know their ability
to take care of themselves, but how they
can be accessories or how they become
guilty OF manslaughter, requires stretch
of the Imagination that but few will be able
to indulge in. There is vast distinction
between the men who by various means
get behind the bars, and the criminals as
pictured in the imagination of such critics
as the editor of the Presbyterian.
